## What is Tarot & Runes?

Cast the runes. Read the cards. Follow the moon.
Witchcraft Handbook is your private divination journal — Elder Futhark rune spreads, Rider-Waite tarot readings, and live moon phase guidance, all in one place.

TAROT
Draw from the full 78-card Rider-Waite deck in three-card, five-card, and Celtic cross spreads. The built-in archive saves every reading so you can return to them, compare patterns, and track how your practice develops over time.
Apple Intelligence synthesises the full spread into a single narrative — not a card-by-card lookup, but a reading that holds the position, the reversal, and the cards alongside each other the way a human reader would.

RUNE CASTING
Throw the Elder Futhark with full merkstave support. Three-rune, five-rune cross, and nine-rune weave layouts. Each cast is read in context: the position it fell in, whether it landed upright or reversed, and what it means alongside the others.

MOON PHASES
Live lunar calendar woven into every reading. See the current phase, the moon’s sign, and what it means for your practice today. Full moon and new moon ritual guides are included so you can act on what you read.

ARCHIVE
Every reading can be saved on your device. Return to a cast from three months ago, read the synthesis again with new eyes, and see how the pattern has shifted. Your archive is your practice journal.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
No account required. No server. Apple Intelligence runs entirely on your device — your readings never leave it. iCloud sync is optional for Pro subscribers and uses your personal iCloud, not ours.

WITCHCRAFT PRO
Unlock unlimited readings, the full archive, iCloud sync, and advanced spread layouts with a monthly or annual subscription, or a one-time lifetime purchase. Free users get full access to the core practice tools — no paywall on the basics.

No account required. No data leaves your device. Just you, the stones, and the cards.

### 3/5 — Could be better

*2026-03-14*

The list of herbs and oils are lacking could be updated with more. Herbal magic is a good app for herbs.

**Developer response:** Thank you for the feedback — it’s really helpful.

We are working on the next update, we’re adding expanded lists of herbs and oils: a larger set of ingredients in the spell composer (grouped by category like Protection, Love, Prosperity, and Essential Oils), plus new herb entries with meanings and uses and new oil recipes in Witchcraft Basics and Oil Recipes.

We’re also bringing Daily Anchor (Spell of the Day, Tarot Card of the Day, Rune of the Day), Moon Oracle, Wheel of the Year, Practice with readings and ritual tools, Journal, and Casting Calendar. We hope you’ll enjoy these changes in the next release.

### 4/5 — DOES THE JOB!!!

*2023-03-21*

GOOD!

### 5/5 — A Guidebook You Need on Your Smartphone

*2022-10-03*

It is loaded with a ton of useful information that you need. (I assume that you’re thinking about getting this app because you “need” something). It is more on the Wicca side, but if you don’t mind White Magick, I highly recommend! Also, it works without internet access (what a rare find these days!). I think you should get this app if you long to learn and grow.

### 3/5 — It’s “okay”

*2019-12-07*

English and writing is spotty at best. It does not provide a great overview of ALL magick. Good starter app, though. Also, I do wish it delved into the theory behind magick as well. Maybe a more detailed layout and something to help newbies “build” a spell.

### 5/5 — I love it !!!!!!!!❤️❤️

*2019-03-19*

This app is sensational, it has a vast set of spells and information about stuff ( haha love that ) I’m a teen witch , I’ve been doing this stuff for 4 Years , and I only recently got the app and so far it’s outstanding , so I recommend beginners to download this app , it’s a good way for them to start spell craft ✌️✌️👍🔯☪️☮️💟

### 5/5 — AMAZING

*2017-03-13, version 3.4*

When you are unable to get a spell book, download this app! I honestly love it. You can tell that it was made by very experienced witches who know their stuff. As a beginner, this is very good.

### 1/5 — Best spell book around.

*2016-11-08*

Amazingly wonderful all the spells I need are right here.  Brilliant to add to my BOS. Highly recommend this to every witch out there

### 5/5 — Such a helpful app

*2016-10-30*

It's a fun and great resource for quick answers and helpful information. Thank you!

### 4/5 — Love this app

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 3.5 — 2026-05-22

This version is a complete rebuild — new design, new engine, new everything.
Tarot readings now use Apple Intelligence to synthesise the full spread as a unified narrative. Not a card-by-card lookup — a reading that holds the positions, the reversals, and the question together the way a human reader would. Runs entirely on your device. Nothing leaves it.
Rune casting has been rebuilt from the ground up with full Elder Futhark support, merkstave (reversed) readings, and the same on-device synthesis for three-rune, five-rune cross, and nine-rune weave layouts.
Moon phase is now woven into every reading — the current phase and lunar sign appear in context, not as a separate screen.
The spell library has been restructured and expanded. The ritual planner now lets you build rituals with ingredients from the built-in material library.
All your readings are saved automatically. The archive lets you return to past casts, compare patterns, and see what keeps appearing.
No account required. No subscription needed for the core practice tools. No data sent to any server.
